9 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2026
The room was clean. The location is nice and central, but not too noisy. the room looks classy with beams and lots of space. The bed is comfortable with clean white sheets. there is tea and coffee in the room. The TV was giant. I didn't try the food but the pub looked decent.
The major drawback to staying is the limited check in time (before 9pm) which is challenging when traveling for work. The room itself was comfortable although the air conditioning system takes time to set up. There is also a shower curtain and a screen in the shower, but this blocks out the light while showering. The door to the bathroom was coming off its hinges which required you to lift the door to close it fully.

Brilliant location, the room was huge. Really good bathroom & shower. The complimentary hot & cold drinks were great too.
My only gripe was when we returned to our room after the event we were attending the housekeeping team had left the previous occupants bed linen & towels on the floor inside the room. This in no way spoiled or affected our stay it was just a minor oversight.

There is AC, the room is large and relatively clean. The location is central. Coffee machine that works and free biscuits and water, so well done on that.
The room is noisy, partly because it's old and creaky, I was woken up at 5am by staff moving around. There is no parking, the staff at this place are nearly always miserable or arrogant, I know not why! Entry and exit is via the access to the toilets and always a bitter smelly. There is no incentive to eat there if you are staying or real attempt to make your stay more comfortable.
